FFS with Dr. Simon (Facial Team) in Marbella, Spain

[mmmmm]

Tiny update: paid my security deposit of 2000 euro via wire transfer yesterday.

Now I'm thinking of pre-paying the rest cuz the dollar is going the wrong way vs. the euro. Total cost in dollars just went up close to $1000 in a few days. Geez!

It looks like eur-usd is going up after last week low at 1.09 ... Some prediction is up to 1.145 or 1.15, before going down on 1.10 again. 
But think positive... last year this time it was almost 1.4

Or hope that Greece defaults and is kicked out of the Euro. I would think the Euro would tank then.....

Off to Marbella this week - finally! I'll be there 1/14 - 1/27, with surgery on 1/18.

I'm excited but feeling really anxious. For some reason, the international travel is freaking me out, which seems silly since my passport now has the correct name and gender...

Hi Eveline I'm flying today! I'm also sort of freaking out about the international travel! I haven't had SRS so I'm nervous about the body scanners in the airports! But i'm sure we will both be fine!

See you towards the end of the week!. My surgery is on the 14th, and I should be released back to the Nest on saturday.

Good Luck Eveline & Michelle ...

I will be thinking of you and you will be fine.

I am getting very nervous already and I am a FFS surgery veteran ... LOL ...

Please give my regards to all the surgeons, patient co-ordinators and staff plus Jenny Bowman.

Have a safe trip and you will really enjoy Marbella, it's awesome.

Get Jenny to take you to the restaurant El Tanguito in Marbella Old Town. We went there together last May.

When I fly in on March 31st, I will be going straight there for dinner. Can't wait ...

OK, there was a bit of a gap in coverage here.

Tomorrow is surgery day - yay! I'm sitting here in the living room in Jenny's Nest with Michelle and some other girls. Everyone has just been wonderful. Hoping I can get some sleep soon - the driver gets here tomorrow morning at 7:45 am.

Later I'll post some photos of the Nest and and some before and afters. Also my fun experience with a missed connection in Madrid - thank heaven for Starbucks, where I hung out for 10 hours waiting on the next flight to Marbella...

I'm sure everything will go well. You are in good hands. Please keep us in the loop, but also get some rest and relaxation.

Cheers!

Hi Eveline,

Hopefully by this time you are all tucked up in bed at the hospital.

I am sure all went well.

Looking forward to hearing from you but take your time.

Hugs

[Eveline]

Thanks everyone for the kind thoughts!

Back at Jenny's Nest after a really first-class experience in hospital. Results look good except the swelling obscures things a bit.

Can't say enough about how wonderfully I've been treated by everyone here at Jenny's, Drs. Simon and Capitan, and the other surgeons and medical staff. And restaurant-quality meals in hospital! Just amazing...

Can't get over the smoothness of my forehead. I feel like a new person!

BTW, the blue in my hair is from the ink used to mark the transplant area. I freaked at first, but now kind of like it.

You totally must rock the new blue! Miss you! xoxoxo

It's amazing, hard to believe you're only a week post... looks excellent, congrats!

Thanks for posting this. I'm having another consult with them.  They seem to be more aggressive now on foreheads. 
So happy for you.

Hi Eveline,

All is looking good.

Hope you are well.
